‘As I Lay Dying’ an apt title

·

I started reading William Faulkner’s “As I Lay Dying” more than a week ago. I would consider myself a pretty fast reader, so a novel with fewer than 300 pages should have been a two- or three-day endeavor for me. However, since I had to keep reading and rereading chapters in an attempt to make sense of them, it took me more than a week to get to the middle of the book.

Sitting at his desk with a cup of coffee, Education Director Roger Meridith answered a phone call from a parent wishing to enroll her 6-year-old son Dillon in summer art classes at the John Waldron Arts Center. It’s not odd for Meridith to be hearing “Summer camp, line three” from his co-workers all day long.

If you were ever 13, don’t read ‘Black Swan Green’

·

David Mitchell’s “Black Swan Green” follows the life of Jason Taylor, a 13-year-old growing up in Worcestershire, England. He fights with his older sister, writes angsty poetry and spends a good portion of his time thinking about sex. It is a stereotypical “coming of age” tale.
